46 CATALOGUE OF STRUCTURAL PRECAST CONCRETE COMPONENTS This section features the industry's first effort to produce a catalogue of structural precast components for framed structure. The catalogue covers 3 categories of buildings : © Commercial and Institutional © Residential © Industrial The catalogue presented here is primarily to assist Architects in selecting column and beam, sizes for given spans, live loads and storey heights. Overall dimensions of beams and columns are therefore emphasised. The supplementary CIDB Precast Design Handbook will provide more detailed dimensions for engineering design and production ‘Annotations such as HC (hollow core), PB (precast beam), PC (precast column) are used to enable catalogue development. Over time, this catalogue will be fine tuned and improved through usage and feedback from the industry. ‘An example on selecting the sizes and the relevant design assumptions are provided at the end of this section.“Table 1A Commercial and Institutional Buildings Recommended Sizes for Precast Slabs and Beams Structural Desi Precast Slab Type (mm) and Overall Beam Size Beam Span [Live Load: for various Structural Floor Element Span 52(m) Sin) kN/m2 6.0 72 12.0 6.0 25 PB40/60 | PB50/60 PB 70/75 30 PB50/60 | PB50/60 PB 60/70 | PB70/75 40 PB 50/60 | PB 50/60 PB70/75 | PB70/75 50 PB50/60 | PB 60/60 PB 70/75 | PB 80/75 25 PB50/70 | PB50/70 PB 70/80 30 |PB50/70 | PB50/70 PB70/80 40 PB50/70 | PB 60/70 PB 80/80 50 |pBso/70 | PB 60/70 PB 80/80 s72;84 | 25 PB50/75, PB 60/75 PB 80785 | PB 80/90 PB 80/85 | PB80/90 PB 80/85 | PB90/90 30 PB50/75 | PB 60/75 40 PB50/75 | PB 60/75 5.0 PB60/75. | PB 60/75 84,96 | 25 PB50/85 | PB 60/85 'PB70/95 | PB 80/95 PB 80/95 | PB 80/100 30 PB50/85 | PB60/85 40 PB60/85 | PB60/85 PB PB 90/100 50 PB60/85 | PB 60/85 PB 90/100 396; <108 | 25 PB50/90_ | PB60/90 PB 80/100 PB 80/105 3.0 PB50/90 | PB60/90 PB 80/105] PB 80/105 40 PB 60/95. | PB 60/95 PB 80/105 | PB 80/105| PB 90/110 50 PB60/95 | PB70/95 PB80/105 | PB 90/105) PB 90/110 >108;<120[ 25 PB 50/100 PB 80/110) PB80/115 | 3.0 PB 60/100 PB 80/110} PB 90/115 4.0 PB 60/100 PB 80/110 | PB 90/115} PB90/115 5.0 PB 60/100 PB80/115 | PB90/115 PB 100/115) Note: 1) PB50/90 denotes a precast beam of width 50cm (500mm) and overall depth of 90em (900mm).

Ifin doubt, competent advice should be sought; g: _ if smaller dimensions less than that given in the tables are to be used, slender column considerations apply and additional checks are required; h. reduction of column size at upper floors for tall building should be considered and reduced sizes can be obtained by the use of tables for building of lower height; and i, cranage, access and connection considerations may preclude the use of precast columns. For beam sizing the following apply:- a. precast beam is normal reinforced precast beam b. reduction of overall beam depth may be achieved by use of prestressed precast beams or precast inverted tee beams; and c._cranage and access considerations may preclude the use of precast beams.

Live load reduction is not used. However for live load greater than 2.0 kN/m2, live oad reduction should be used for more economical wall design. 5960 Example: Preliminary sizing of precast slab, precast beam and precast column Consider the typical floor layout as shown for an Office Building:- Design criteria 1, Design live load =4.0KN/m2 2 Design imposed dead loads: services 15 KN/m2, partition 0 kKN/m2 finishes 2kN/m2 3.

Provide for precast slab to span parallel to the alphabetical grid and precast beam to span parallel to the numeric grid. Step 2. Consider structures between Grid 3 to 5 and Grid A to C. Hence, (precast beam span, S1 (i) precast slab span, S2 ii) design live load Step 3. Precast slab and beam:- Refer to Table 1A and with structural span $1 being >6.0, <7.2m, design live load =4.0 kN/m2 and structural floor element span $2 6m, hence, (i) precast slab 25 HC Gi) precast beam = PB70/80 (b=700mm ,D=800mm) Step 4, Column siz Refer to Table 1B/2 and with building height of 7-storey within the range of >5, £10 storey, structural span $1 being >6.0, <7.2m, design live load structural floor element span $2 hence, square column .0 kN/m2 and 6m, 1C75 (750mm x750mm)(tner otru Precast staircase offers consistent step dimensions and good surface finish.

The precast components used range from precast slabs to vehicular crash barriers. Precast frame and skeletal systems with double-T or hollow core slabs for floor are used to obtain large open space for parking. Adoption of precast method for construction of multi-storey carparks has been proven to give a shorter construction time.
